The pictures above were taken just a week after my friends and I had our afternoon snacks here. We were then on our way back to Manila from our day tour at Chateau Royale Resorts.
The blueberry pancakes were for my household angels as they were in awe of my description of how it looked like when each of my friends ordered this sweet looking delight a week earlier.
I won’t rave (or rant) on how the food tastes like. The ambiance of this place, for me, is what sells. If you go to Tagaytay, the Bag of Beans is just one of those places you’d make sure to spend sometime before calling it a successful weekend. From buffet breakfast or lunch to snacks of coffee and sweets, the menu suits most types of interests specially their all day breakfasts of pancakes.
You’ll find Bag of Beans at the right side when en route to Batangas and will not miss the swarms of cars looking for parking spaces to buy their coffee beans and breads. Should you be interested to dine in, there are three parking spaces at the side and back of the resto.

It was a family event when we went to Sonya’s Garden for a spa weekend get away. I’ve heard so much about this place and so far everything were positive. Now that I’ve seen the place for myself, I totally agree.
Mine was a Full Body Scrub with free Cream Bath (Php 1120) – This is a one hour exfoliating full body scrub with moisturizing cream. The effect was not just polished skin but also invigorating with the massage that comes with this service.
Other services we had were:
Foot Spa with Back Massage, 1 hour Php 560
Hair Spa with Scalp Massage, 30 mins Php 560
Aromatherapy Steam Bath, 20 mins Php 450
Manicure/Pedicure, Php 150/Php 150
Lilac Package, 2.5 hours Php 2580
Lilac package comes with body scrub with a choice from rose, banana, green tea, or olive grove plus facial and hair spa, Sonya’s signature massage.

By the way, the soaps in their bathrooms were the mini-honey soaps from Ilog Maria, a honey bee farm nearby.
And then, there is a Panaderia (Bakeshop) with various local breads and pastries.
